interactivity is the essential ingredient for a successful
Internet-based business, whether it is commercial, academic

online
strategies. Creating an online guest-book gives visitors to
your
site a user-friendly format to provide valuable feedback, at
the
same time reducing your efforts in collecting and recording
this
information.
WebGenie's Guestbook*Star lets you create a guest-book
and its CGI scripts with very little or no programming experience.

| Notes...
|
- There is no need to buy hosting licence if able to
reside the guestbook CGI on own server. All that to pay
then is a one-off license fee of $49 for the software.
- While most ISPs allow their users to reside and run
CGIs, each site may have different requirements and
directory specifications.
- If you are the system administrator for an NT or
Windows webserver, then it is required to configure the
server to run CGIs. We can offer technical advice but we
will not be able to configure it, as it requires onsite
access to the server.
